F.A.Q.

What are the costs and options if I want to use Online Giving with Ekklesia 360?

Ekklesia 360 supports two different payment gateways for Online Giving: Authorize.Net and Paypal Pro (this is different than Paypal Express or Payflow Pro). Your bank or existing financial institution may offer their own payment gateway solution - check with them to see if they offer a gateway with Authorize.Net.

Each gateway offers different pricing on each individual transaction. Here is a rough breakdown of costs:
